Osamu Sekiguchi Journals

We arrived in Lexington around noon. We usually reach stopping
points around two o'clock, but a big parade was scheduled in Lexington,
so our plan was adjusted for it. This time was different from usual,
we camped on a small plaza in the town. Many people gathered together
to see our covered wagons. This town was located along a freeway,
so we found a McDonald's and shouted for joy.

We were not harassed here with rain, but the wind was strong and
cold. We pitched our tent slowly and deliberately because a pole
of the tent had been broken by a high wind. It was possible that
our pegs could be pulled out by the wind and lost, we went to a
nearby store and bought twelve pegs.
